QUICK-1000: Quicklime sensor-monitoring module, 1000 data points 

for managing and monitoring all your AKCP devices and sensors (including 3rd party sensors), customizing dashboards, graphing, alerts, distributing firmware updates, and remotely configuring devices, up to 1000 data points 

Data center monitoring and optimization should not be complicated or difficult to achieve. AKCP provides an approach to monitoring your data center environmental and power conditions in real-time. Whether your critical facilities are remote, difficult to access sites, or simply spread over a wide area, the ability to monitor all environmental conditions from a single user interface is essential.

Quicklime is a powerful and versatile centralized monitoring and management platform for all AKCP environmental monitoring appliances, sensors and probes. Designed for mission-critical environments, it provides AI powered analytics for data-center infrastructure management (DCIM). Quicklime is a best-in-class data center infrastructure management software (DCIM) with a focus on temperature and airflow analysis. Quicklime helps protect IT equipment from high temperatures and monitors for hotspots in your racks, helping with meeting ASHRAE recommendations for data center operating temperatures.

By integrating real-time environmental and infrastructure data from AKCP's extensive range of sensors, the platform creates a highly accurate digital representation of the data center environment.

With Quicklime you can create customized desktops that drill down from a data center view to an individual rack, or asset in a few clicks. Sensor data feeds into assets for granular insights into each assets power, environmental, or security status. Quicklime also integrates with third party sensors via popular protocols such as Modus, Bacnet, SNMP and MQTT.

With Quicklime you can manage and monitor all your all your AKCP environmental monitoring appliances and deployed sensors, intelligent PDU's, and backup power systems from a single user interface. Quicklime also distributes firmware updates, configuration files and backup for your AKCP environmental monitoring appliances in the field.

Access Quicklime user-interface from any device such as a laptop, smart phone, Windows or Linux machine. All you need is a Web browser (Google Chrome recommended). There are no apps to install or packages to download.

Monitoring
Quicklime supports monitoring of your data center environmental, power and security conditions. It offers SNMP V1/2/3 and Modbus TCP/IP support. with Quicklime you can view all your deployed AKCP and third party sensors in one software.

Fully SNMP compliant, Quicklime monitors third party devices virtual sensors. with Quicklime you can integrate intelligent PDU's and UPS systems, monitor server loads and system uptime and, calculate live PUE.

Quicklime monitors for all your AKCP sensors. Manage sensor thresholds, alerts and reports. Customizable desktops to display sensor data with gauges and graphs. Close integration to AKCP thermal-map sensors displays rack inlet, outlet and △T values for each of your racks. Identify hotspots and cold spots in your data center.

Data Center Monitoring and Optimization
Thermal risks in the data center must be monitored so they can be managed. Ensure 100% ASHRAE compliance at rack level, minimize downtime and increase equipment service life.

The second most common cause of unplanned data center downtime is failure to manage the thermal risks posed by overheating servers. Almost 1/3 of data center downtime can be traced to overheating. Due to this, many data centers mitigate the risks by overcooling, which results in wasted energy, increased carbon emissions and OpEx.

With AKCP Thermal Map Sensors and Quicklime heat-maps you can have the best of both worlds, identify hot spots and cold spots for optimal efficiency and lower PUE.

Real-Time Heat-Maps
2D heat-maps constantly update with sensor data at rack level. With each rack having 6 temperature sensors (3 at front and rear, top middle and bottom) hotspots, high rack inlet temperatures and incorrect ∆T's are quickly identified and alerted.

Identify Hotspots Before they are a Problem
With Quicklime heat-maps hotspots are identified. Visual and audible alarms can be raised, SNMP traps, E-mail and SMS can be sent. With full SNMP V1/2/3 compatibility it easily integrates with existing NMS, BMS and DCIM software.

24/7/365 Thermal Optimization
Be proactive with thermal management of your data center. Sense disaster and be put in control before critical infrastructure fails. As data center loads change identify areas of cost saving. Utilize sensors as an analysis tool not only for alerts.

Comply with ASHRAE and Uptime Institute
With sensors placed at each rack you can ensure 100% compliance with ASHRAE and Uptime Institutes recommended temperatures and sensor placement. Sensors reduce the risk of thermal shutdowns, which account for 1/3 of data center outages.

Thermal Risk Monitoring
Quicklime sensor-monitoring helps protect IT equipment from high temperatures, monitors for hotspots in your racks and alerts with sensor values. Quicklime sensor-monitoring helps meeting ASHRAE recommendations for data center operating temperatures.

Efficient Energy Usage
Efficient use of cooling, check for cold spots in your data center. Areas that are over-cooled or under utilized. Improve your energy efficiency, reduce operational costs.

Real-time Insights
Quicklime DCIM provides real-time insights to data center performance metrics such as PUE. 2D and 3D heat-maps, ∆T and ∆P, humidity, security power and assets.

Hardware
AKCP offers a wide range of sensors. Specialty sensors for the data center include cabinet thermal maps, contact-less current sensors and power meters. Close integration of AKCP sensors with Quicklime gives a complete end to end monitoring solution for your data center.

Cross Platform Access
Access the Quicklime user interface from any device such as a laptop, smart-phone, Windows or Linux machine. All you need is a web browser (Google Chrome recommended). There are no apps to install or packages to download.

Software Updates and Support
Software updates and support are included with the license for one year. Optional Quicklime annual maintenance (to continue receiving software updates and support after the first year lapses) is available - see listing below.
